Post BBS GT 38's?

I recently got my hands on some BBS mesh wheels and want some background on them. They are 14's and they say "6JJx14H2" on them also "Licensed by BBS" and "GT 38". I am sure they are not that rare or uncommon at all i am simply trying to find some background information on them. Here is a picture of them on the car they were mounted on before i got my hands on them.

Can you see what those wheels look like in the photos? All I can see is a lot of black area.

if they came oem or even optional off a corolla then the center bore would be too small for your civic and you would have needed to either run spacers or had the center bore widened.

Naw, I ain't lost, Ralph knows what he's talkin' 'bout. One day, I tried my friend's Toyota Corolla blackies, and the center bore is too small by 2mm. So, it can't be off a Toyota line up wheels, besides Toyota don't run on oem BBS, why I know, my Nihongin friends works at the Torrance Toyota Headquarters on 190th and Western.

bbs offered dealer optional bbs on their camry models. i know this for a fact. also, lexus had dealer installed bbs.

wheel center bore :



4x100 civics = 56.1
4x100 corollas = 54 mm

what im saying is that those would of have needed to be modified to fit on your civic if they were an OEM wheel. or bbs had the factory installed hub rings.


anyways, post better pictures so we can help you better
